It is situated in the grounds of Sidegate Primary School on Sidegate Lane. Our Ethos:

Little Acorns is a natural, homely and stimulating Pre-school that children love coming to. We pride ourselves on our parent partnerships that allow key people and families to work together to support children in furthering their learning and development. We are responsive to children’s needs and all children are respected and valued for who they are. The team works together to provide an enriching environment and stimulating unique experiences that give a sense of awe and wonder. We work with children to build resilience and independence giving them the confidence to believe in their capabilities.

Our curriculum book over the last couple of weeks has been Handa's Surprise. We have been doing lots of different activities, including trying a selection of different fruits. The children were able to touch, smell and taste the different fruits as we discussed their textures, shapes and where they grow.
We have explored the role play fruit and vegetable shop, African small world and a variety of sensory activities such as playdough, frozen peas and potpourri.
Outside we have been making obstacle courses to practice our balancing skills. and building bamboo houses. We have been practising our fine motor and hand eye co-ordination skills by making beaded necklaces and bracelets.
We have also been printing with real fruits and vegetables. 🍐🍊🥕🍍🍉

This week the children have all enjoyed walking down to the community cafe. On their way we had a little scavenger hunt where we were searching for different things we could see, including a penguin! Everyone then enjoyed a drink and some crisps. The children all had a great time, and a huge thank you to all the parents who came along to help! ☕️
